They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 215 Huanlong's "Black Grail" Strategy

Seeing that Dan Lei had actually turned against the Heavenly Gang and wanted him to join the Immortal Path, Huanlong decisively mocked him.

"The Immortal Path? A path so broken that no one can willingly step into it anymore, only you Vidyadharas still consider it a treasure."

"It's better to seize the opportunity when the path to immortality is destroyed, and receive the blessing of destruction sooner."

After saying that, Huanlong prepared to use his real skills to deal with Danlei and the others.

In the previous battles, Huanlong hardly launched any effective attacks, mainly focusing on defending against Jingyuan.

Huanlong isn't stupid. Although Danlei and the others are all top-tier Destiny Walkers, none of them have reached the Commander level.

Even if Dan Lei can use the power of the breeding envoy, he can only be considered a quarter of an envoy at most.

This level of power is enough to hold oneself back and injure oneself, but to attempt to defeat or even kill oneself is wishful thinking.

Therefore, Huanlong kept searching for Jingyuan's location, because only he could deliver the fatal blow to him.

Huanlong firmly believed that Luofu had gone to great lengths to set up a trap and trap him here, and wouldn't be foolish enough to divide his forces here.

Moreover, Xingxiao was not exposed at all, so it was impossible for Jingyuan to suddenly have precognition and run to ambush her.

In conclusion, Huanlong is certain that Jingyuan is lurking somewhere, ready to strike at any moment.

However, Huanlong searched for a long time but couldn't find Jingyuan who was hiding.

At this moment, Jing Yuan's figure was completely hidden by the formation.

As long as either Fu Xuan or Qing Que is maintaining the formation, Dan Lei won't be able to find Jing Yuan, let alone Huan Long.

Therefore, since Huanlong cannot find Jingyuan, there is only one way: to force Danlei and the others into a desperate situation and force Jingyuan to show himself.

So Huanlong stopped hiding.

The Huanlong here is different from the Huanlong in the game who has merged with the Jianmu Fruit.

In the game, Huanlong, after fusing with the Jianmu Fruit, didn't even have time to adapt to his body before rushing out to face the Starry Sky Train crew led by Jingyuan in their attack.

This directly resulted in Huanlong being unable to utilize even half of his full abilities.

Because Huanlong lacks a balanced or harmonious destiny to reconcile the conflict between the abundant power of his body and the destructive power of his true form.

They could only let the two forces entangle each other.

It wasn't until the third stage that these two forces showed initial signs of merging.

Unfortunately, in the end, Huanlong did not fuse the two powers. Instead, his core was destroyed by Jingyuan, and his Jianmu Fruit body was destroyed by the conflict of the three energies of Hunting, Destruction, and Abundance.

But now, Huanlong didn't use any fancy tricks. She was simply Suiyang, who had received the blessing of destruction. Even under the suppression of the formation, she could still unleash the full power of the messenger.

The power that Dan Lei seized in the previous offensive using the Spirit Binding Technique was less than one-hundredth of Huan Long's own strength and did not affect his combat power at all.

Since the goal was to force Jing Yuan to make a move, Huanlong naturally focused her main attack on Dan Lei, who was the most important person to Luofu.

Of course, it wouldn't be right to let Jingliu and Ren keep attacking him, so Huanlong decided to let some opponents play with the two of them and the Starry Sky Train crew.

Huanlong condensed several clumps of destructive black mud around his body, and then detonated them instantly.

The black mud instantly exploded, turning into a sky full of mud projectiles that hurtled towards everyone.

Although it was described as a rain of mud bombs, the black mud attacks were not dense, and the falling speed was not fast. Not to mention the three stronger Dan Lei, even the weakest one, San Yue Qi, could dodge them.

Moreover, the Six Phases Ice of March 7th is actually a very powerful ability.

Walter once explained that hexa-phase ice is a creation that follows the law of imaginary numbers and will not change its form due to external interference.

If you use a six-phase ice shield on March 7th, you can even block this level of black mud directly.

However, Huanlong's spreading of black mud was not just an attack.

After the black mud landed, a portion of it instantly transformed into black lotus flowers, indiscriminately spreading a corrosive and destructive force of destiny in the surrounding area.

The destructive power of the black lotus is not very offensive, but it will greatly weaken the protective life force energy.

The result is that the protective life force energy can withstand a reduction in the amount of attack, just like having your maximum health bar reduced.

Having gained experience from the game, Dan Lei roared as soon as he saw the black lotuses.
"The black lotus flowers on the ground must be cleared away quickly, otherwise even a small aftershock of an attack could cause fatal injuries!"

After saying that, Dan Lei once again poured the power of procreation into the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, wanting to quickly clear the flowers.

However, Huanlong wouldn't stand by and watch Danlei, who had a wide-range attack capability, help the train crew below clear out the black lotus. With a flick of her finger, a bolt of lightning imbued with the power of a Commander-level Destruction Path shot towards Danlei.

Dan Lei's attention never left Huanlong, so he neutralized the attack with a single strike using the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, which was imbued with the power of a courier-level reproductive destiny.

However, Huanlong's Finger Flicking Lightning is like a finger flicking magic, which can be fired continuously at high speed.

Dan Lei slashed one attack, and seven or eight more attacks were already coming from behind.

In terms of the amount of life energy that a Commander-level being can draw upon, Dan Lei has no chance against Huan Long. So, Dan Lei uses the Sui Yang Soul Spirits around him as shields to dodge.

The Suiyang Soul Spirit that Dan Lei seized from Huanlong can also be used to command the power of the Destruction Path at the Envoy level.

However, the amount of command-level energy it can draw upon is negligible compared to that of the Illusionary One.

Similar to the casual messengers that [Aha] created before, they are the kind of messengers that lower the minimum combat power of the messengers.

Therefore, it can only block two shots at most before it is destroyed.

Fortunately, the Suiyang Flame can reassemble as long as it is not destroyed, so Danlei can still use it as a shield that can be reborn.

After all, he couldn't bear to let Draig and Albion physically shield him from the attack.

Of course, Dan Lei, who was forced to dodge constantly, had to use the Immortal Slaughtering Sword to defend against Huanlong's attacks, and couldn't pay attention to the battle situation on the ground for the time being.

Meanwhile, on the ground, Mirror Stream and Blade were already tied down, while the Starry Sky Train crew was locked in a fierce battle.

The black mud that Huanlong had splashed earlier partially turned into black lotus flowers, and the rest, after a short period of gathering and merging, actually emerged into various humanoid warriors and monsters.

As is widely known, the creature Suiyang can use energy to conjure known creatures to launch attacks.

This is a racial talent called [Spirit Division].

During the ghost-catching activity, Yanqing encountered the millions of swords transformed from Suiyang's [Melting Torch].

The ability of [Floating Smoke] to conjure various monsters and fight alongside players is also an application of this racial talent.

Since Suiyang knows relatively low-level moves like 【Floating Smoke】 and 【Melting Torch】, Huanlong naturally knows them too.

Moreover, Huanlong, as the Great Lord of Annihilation, was knowledgeable and experienced, and countless powerful beings had been killed and devoured by him.

Therefore, she recreated all the people and monsters she had devoured through the black mud, immediately throwing the Starry Sky Train crew into chaos.

Honestly, Danlei, seeing the battlefield on the ground out of the corner of his eye from the air, really wanted to complain about Huanlong: "Did you study the Heaven's Feel route of Fate/stay night?"

The move that Illusionary Oboro used is too similar to how Black Sakura used the Holy Grail's black mud to corrupt the Heroic Spirits and then control them to fight.

With the power of destruction from the Illusionary Emptiness, those humanoid warriors can also unleash destructive energy beams, capable of severely crippling a blade with a single shot, leaving it only able to lie on the ground recovering from its wounds.

As for Jingliu, she handled it with ease. With a flash of white light, Jingliu, wielding the Immortal-Trapping Sword, quickly cleared away the black lotus and black mud monsters.

However, the black mud on Huanlong's body seemed endless. No matter how much Mirror Flow destroyed, she released as much. The fearless black mud monster slowed down Mirror Flow's cleansing efforts with its body.

Fortunately, Blade is indestructible; he can get up and fight again in just a few seconds after falling down. It's wishful thinking for the Black Mud Monster to surround and kill Mirror Style.

The problem still lies with the Star Train crew. These black mud monsters are not living beings; they're like slimes. If attackers can't destroy them with the power of destiny, ordinary cutting and striking attacks are ineffective.

In reality, Walter did not embark on a path of nothingness; he was a traveler on a path of exploration and destruction.

After all, it's quite reasonable for someone who enjoys creating black holes to embark on a path of destruction.

However, Walter's black hole consumes a lot of energy and cannot be created indefinitely.

Using a black hole to defeat Huanlong is no problem.

When fighting these small monsters, he mostly used the Void Severance.

However, the Void Breaker is not very effective against these black mud monsters.

Although this move can instantly cut a monster into several pieces, the monster simply discards the cut surfaces damaged by the Destruction Path and easily pieces them back together.

Seeing that his killing efficiency was so low, Walter simply switched to a support role, using gravity fields to slow down enemies and buy time for the others to deal damage.

The other people here mainly refer to Dan Heng and Xing.

Xing uses her rule-breaking strike to blast life-force energy into monsters, easily destroying them.

Moreover, it may be because of the star core in his body that his Star Destruction Destiny Path exceeds that of other Destiny Path practitioners of the same realm by a large margin.

However, Dan Heng was still just going through the motions. His ability to penetrate the path of his hunting was exceptional, but his ability to cause widespread destruction was relatively weak.

Therefore, he could only fight the Black Lotus, which could not regenerate quickly, and the pressure of dealing damage to monsters almost entirely fell on Xing alone.

As for March 7th, she can now play a support role, providing shields while using the talismans given by Dan Lei to control enemies.

However, the talismans for March 7th will eventually run out, and with one less person to control them, the star that is about to destroy the destiny path is likely to run into trouble.

Dan Lei, watching the battle below from the sky, could only feel anxious. Huanlong's long-range firepower was almost entirely concentrated on him, leaving him with no way to provide support.

Sending Draeg and Albion down to provide support would be suicide; they are too large, and the power of the Destroyer-class doesn't care whether you are a soul or not.

Dan Lei estimated that Huanlong could seriously injure them with a single blow.

As for sending Skarabaz to harass Huanlong, Danlei himself went down to provide support.

Dan Lei stated that without Skarakabaz's reproductive destiny power, he was also someone who was severely injured by Huanlong's attack.

So, Danlei couldn't help but shout in mid-air!
"Danheng! What are you waiting for! Do you have to cause casualties before you're willing to use that power?"

Do you need Blade to clear your head?

Upon hearing Dan Lei's words, the besieged Ren suddenly gained power. He slashed away the monster beside him with his sword and directly asked...

"Really? Can I cut down Yin Yue right now?"

Faced with his old nemesis, Blade, Dan Heng could only respond with a "humph."

However, he still had some sense and knew that it would be extremely irresponsible to hide his strength in front of the Great Lord of Annihilation.

Actually, the reason Dan Heng didn't transform right away wasn't because he wanted to hide his strength.

Instead, seeing how well Dan Lei started, they thought they could defeat Huanlong without having to lift a finger.

But now it seems that the breakthrough really is on our side.

So Danheng stopped pretending and said to Walter...

"Mr. Walter, could you please buy me some time?"

Walter had complete faith in his partner, adjusted his glasses, and said, "Okay."

Then, he raised the scepter of the pseudo-Heart of Eden in his hand and roared in a childish and melodramatic manner.
"Monsters! Witness the shattering of stars! Heart of Pseudo-Eden, full power activated!"

With Walter's roar, a black dot appeared in the sky.

In the next instant, the space around the black dot distorted, drawing in all the surrounding matter.

A black hole, even larger than the one that attacked Huanlong before, appeared close to the ground, indiscriminately sucking in the black lotus and black mud monster below.

Even the Mirror Stream and Blade are affected, and they need to use the power of their destiny to fix themselves in place in order to avoid being absorbed.

As for the rest of the train crew, Xing and March 7th had already hidden behind Walter, in a safe zone where they could barely feel the black hole's pull.

Meanwhile, Danheng is in the "invincible" frame of his transformation and appears to be unaffected by the black hole.

Upon seeing such a massive simulated black hole appear, Huanlong immediately raised his hand, intending to break it.

However, Dan Lei released the Zhuxian Sword directly from the sword box, the forces of hunting and protecting intertwined and echoed: the bow was drawn and ready to be activated.

As its name suggests, this resonant, intertwined power can draw a bow and sword with the power of destiny, and it also possesses an extremely strong protective shield when firing.

Moreover, Dan Lei had also put a jade shield around himself to ensure that his attacks would not be interrupted by Huanlong's lightning.

Dan Lei's drawing of the bow and nock of the sword is in a physical sense. After Dan Lei infused the Zhuxian Sword with the power of echoing and intersecting forces, an arrow-shaped energy shield of destiny was directly formed on the outer edge of the sword.

When Huaiyan introduced the Zhuxian Sword, he said that this sword is driven by the path of hunting and can travel through time and space to kill enemies invisibly.

Even though Dan Lei's hunting destiny power amplified its power by creating echoes, it still couldn't reach the point where the Zhuxian Sword could travel through time and space.

However, if it's just about traversing space, that's already possible now.

Huanlong had just raised his left hand, preparing to detonate Walter's supermassive pseudo-black hole.

It felt as if a purple light pierced through space and entered my palm.

Because Huanlong did not use his life force energy to protect his palms when attacking (doing so would affect the energy flow during the attack), he successfully replicated the behavior of many BOSS-level characters whose strongest attack point is their weakest point.

Dan Lei's Zhuxian Sword, imbued solely with the destructive and hunting power inherent in its blade, pierced through Huanlong's left palm and continued through his arm, exiting from his left shoulder.

The next second, Huanlong's left arm, which was gathering power, exploded instantly due to the insertion of a foreign object, causing the intertwined energy and the energy of his destructive destiny to clash.

In a physical sense, the explosion turned Huanlong's entire left arm into a sky full of green flames.

Dan Lei succeeded in his attack, and then, taking advantage of the fact that Huanlong's body was scattered, he began to frantically capture its flames.

However, Danlei miscalculated this time.

Huanlong has spent so much time playing shooting games with Danlei.

While attacking Danlei with lightning, she was also charging up her ultimate move.

At this moment, she saw that Dan Lei was standing still, relying on the solid shield, and his remaining right hand was facing Dan Lei.

Suddenly, a massive amount of Envoy-level Destruction Destiny Energy appeared around Dan Lei, and instantly condensed into meteor-like fiery magma, enveloping Dan Lei.

This is Huanlong's ultimate skill, [Suspended Star Shattered Moon].

At this moment, on the battlefield, a "sun" hangs high in the sky, and the ground is covered by a "black hole".

Then, as if they had agreed on it, the two of them acted as if they had already made a plan.

The "scorching sun" was crushed remotely by Huanlong.

When the matter consumed by the "black hole" reaches its saturation point, it explodes directly.

The two explosions created a spectacular cataclysmic event, with terrifying flames instantly filling the entire barrier.
